Vim" to the Constitution of the United
Young, thriving, vigorous nations are purcha
sers ; the weak, the feeble, the decrepit, are sel
lers. It has always been so; it always will be
so. When nations begin to decay, they sell
their territory, or it is taken from them by con
quest ; or even sometimes before decay, with a
prodigal administration, improvident rulers sell
their territory, as Charles II. of England sold
Dunkirk. Decayed nntions always sell, and
generally do a good thing by it; because what
they do not sell is usually taken away from
them for nothing. When they have lived out
their day and generation, about the wisest thing
they can do is to part with their dominion,
which they can no longer hold Events will have
their course, and that gravitation of Cuba to
wards us, of which Mr. Adams spoke, contin
ues, liko the gravitation of the earth, gaining
accelerated motion every day it moves; anil
what was gravitating fifty years ago, Is now
coining with terrific power ngainst that island
The same law of gravitation operates in politics
as well as in the natural world
We arc toll, I suppose, by way of terror—
the last point I think the honorable gentleman
made was tlmt England and France had guar
antied that the Island should not bo taken by
force from Sfnin. I have seen the same inti
mation ; and, if I relied on newspapers, I might
show that they have said that we should not
have it with or without the consent of Spain.
That is one of the main considerations why I
desire the American*Scnatc and House of Rep
resentatives to-day to declare wliat their policy
Hut I will remark to the honorable Senator

know from these Halls that we are a Power in

with Spain, no threats of war from cither of
them, or from both of them, will deter us for
one moment. 1 am ready to say to them; ifyou
have any of that work on hand, we will meet
you at any moment you please. I will not sur-
not believe he will be able to shake; which I

<ur internal questions, and I will not man-

enough to ht.ve his conduct or his vote or the
policy of his country controlled by any such
motives.
I am ready to throw back the defiance across
the Atlantic to England °ud to France, and tell
them I will purchase where I list, of free peo
ple. and I will be ready to meet them when
ever they attempt to defeat or to interfere
this mighty nation, by tying up our with tins great right, belonging to every free

ding with it’our own internal dissensions,
■j-t, to all the rest of the world let us pre-
ouiselves as one people and one nation;
viatever are our domestic troubles, let us

ihise who have mighty numbers would

i n-titution, right, and reniqji, to rely up-
and indopendept people. Wc are able to
maintain our independence against England
and France t hrown in the scale with Spain, at
any moment. At all events, I am ready, even
iu the first three quarters of a century of our
existence, to stake that existence, rather than
be deterred from pursuing a national policy by
the threats of two sueh Governments.

Spring, summer, autumn, all are past,
The forests now are drear,
The wintry winds have come at last,
With cold and icy cheer.'
The babbling brook in sleep profound.
Has hashed Us murinering lay.
The leaves Uc scattered on the ground,
Like man, soon to decay.
Wc bear the tinging birds no more,
For they have stilled their lay;
The jc’smine now no longer pours
Sweet fragrance o’er our way.
But winter chill, with hoary head,
And cold, and blighting breath,
Is felt and seen, where e’er we tread.
Emblem of mortal death!
Yet in the depths of winter’s hour,
When all around is bleak;
There is one sweet—one lovely flower,
Of “coas/oncy” doth speak.
The “Hyacinth”—’tia “cona/oncy”,
So pure, so blanched to night,
And like sweet thoughts in memory,
Sheds forth a hallowed light.
’Tin like the Christian, here In strife;
Though all around is gloom;
He’s calm mid all the storms of life,
Diffusing sweet perfume.
So, may it be with thy own life,
Wiien all around is chill;
In clouds, and storm, and winter strife,
May you be lovely still.
May.“c»uif<i»ry” in love and truth,

In the fair blooming morn of youth,
Or in life’s evening tide.
Thus may you shed a fragrance pure,
By virtue, truth, and love;
And when you fail on earth, secure
A blissful home above,

dropped into a snooze soon after dark. After
snoozing nwhile, a jolt of tho cars awakened
him, and looking up, he saw, just above his
shoulder, the head of the passenger occupying
the seat just behind him and at'the same time
he observed that passenger slip his pocket book
from his breast pocket, and instantly arise and
make for the door Mr. Ltndawood endeavored
to catch the dishonest hand, but failed; yet,
just as the thief reached the door, he caught
one of tbe skirts of his coat. The thief pulled
hard, and so did Mr. Uindawood. and off came
the shirt. Tbe thief was just outside the door,
when Mr. L. caught tbe other skirt of the coat
and of it came. The cars were then under
full headway.
The drowsy passengers just began to un
derstand the nature of the difficulty between
the two parties, when the tbipf parted with
Uis entire coat-tail. Several of them ran to
the assistance of Sir. Lindawood, but too late.
The thief preferred to risk a broken neck to
the State prison, aud leaped off the cars while!
nnder way. Whether he wag killed, hurt or | HIDES.,
escaped uninjured, we did not learn, but it is
said he must have fallen a distance of fifteen
or twenty feet before be reached the bottom.
Tho pocket book which he stoic from Sir.
Lindawood and kept, contained $61. Anoth.
er one containing $6000, he failed to reach.
Sir. Lindawood was regretting his loss, when
be conductor proposed an examination of the
thief's coat-tail, which was done. To the sur
prise. nnd gratification of the passengers, two
elegant gold watches were found in the pock
ets, It was unanimously voted that to steal
from a thief is not criminal, and the conductor
passed the watches over to Sfr. Lindawood, to
repay him for his loss. There is no daugcr of
the owner ever calling for them. The time
pieces are valuable ones, and Mr.Lindawood
made fully $100 by being robbed that time.

SAVANNAH, January, 1859.
Public attention being now directed to the pur
chase of Fertilizers, we beg leave most earnestly
to call yonr attention to tho above Card.
Mr. G. Ober, the General Agent in Baltimore for
the sate of
Kettlewell’s Manipulated Guano,
Has recently visited us, with endorsements and
testimonials of so strong » character, as to autho
rise ns in commending to your most favorable atten
tion this valuable Fertilizer. We believe it to be
the most reliable and economical Manure now offer
ed to the public. It will commend Itself for the fol
lowing reasons:
1st.—Because it is imported Gnano, intimately
combined, so as to meet the wants of Crop and Soil,
and not a manufactured article.
2d.—Its fine and dry conidtion—making it ready
for immediate application, without sciving or grind
ing.
3d.—In production of Crop and permanent im
provement of Land, it surpasses all other Fertilizers,
not excepting Peruvian Guano.
4th.—Its low price.
Peruvian Guano contains 16 per cent Ammonia
and only 25 to 30 per cent Phosphate of Lime. By
reducing the costly Ammonia one-balf, and doubling
the Phosphate of Lime, a far more valuable Fertili
zer must he produced. It has been demonstrated
that 8 per cent of Ammonia is enough for ail crops—
more is injurious, besides expensive. Indeed, many
prefer the No. 2 Manipulated Guano, becauso it con
tains a larger per centage of Phosphate of Lime;
the simple reason why Cotton Seed is so valuable a
Manure is owing to this element alone. In Mary
land and Virgiuia this article has been in use exten
sively for several years, renovating tho old and worn
out lands of those States, Our sister State, South
Carolina, is a large patron. Cotton Planters giro it
the decided preference where it has been tried. We
have transacted business with Mr John Kettlewell,
of Baltimore, the Proprietor of this article, for seve
ral years, and hare entire confidence in his integrity.
We beg that you will at least try this article, if you
are not disposed to venture largely. Our object is
to disseminate as widely as possible what we believe
to be a public good.
As an intelligent Planter, you cannot hesitate, if
you wifi but examine for yourself, and see bow im
portant it is to make our worn out lands to stand
along side with tbe virgin soil.
We are now ordering a supply from Baltimore,
and if you will advise us on receipt of this, we will
forward to your address snch an amount as you may
designate, at Baltimore prices viz : 648 per ton fo
No. 1, and 643 per ton for No. 2, of 2.0C0 lbs., adding
cost of freight, ftc.—cash or its equivalent. If put
in store tbe price will be 6!>3 and 48 per ton in Sa
vannah It is put up in new sacks and in beautiful
order.
It can be applied broadcast, in hill or drill, in im
mediate contact with the seed, withont. injury, an
important advantage in quantities precisely as Pe
ruvian, say from 100 to 300 lbs. per acre, with the
benefit of improvement to lands, the more it is lib
erally applied. Wo offer it from a single sack to
any number cf tons that may be wanted.

John Kettlewell, Esq.;
Dear Sir:—Your favor of tho 13th inst., came to
hand yesterday, desiring me to give you the resnlt of
my experience with Peruvian and “ Manipulated
Guano” this year, upon my cotton crop, which I do
with much pleasure ; but it is necessary and proper
that I inform you, that the “ Manipulated Guano”
Was not received till 10th April, which was about
ten or twelve days after I was done planting where
I had applied the Peruvian Guano ; and I put the
“Manipulated” upon old and inferior land and the
yield has been about equal per acre. I used it upon
poorer land, that I might be better able to know its
value as a manure; and I am fully of opinion, that
the production was doubled by tbe use of it, and the
cotton of better quality, than upon tbe same kind of
land where no fertilizer was used. The test experi
ment has proven so satisfactory to me, tnat I shall
hereafter continue the use of your Manipulated, in
preference to the Peruvian Gnano.
Yours, Ac., ISAAC T. ROBINSON.
P. S.—I perceive no difference in the quality of
cotton grown from the Manipulated and Peru\*
Guano.

John Kettlewell. Esq.t
Dear Sir:—Your tavor of the 19th instant, asking
my experience in tbe use of your '* Manipulated Gu-
uno” is just to hand—I reply, with pleasure: I have
ased five tons of it iu the growth of cotton on both
old and fresh lands of mulatto soil, and the result is,
that, on the former, where without the use of your
gnano, I have made 200 lbs. of seed cotton per acre
with it—I will gather this year—which has been one
of such drought that cotton w ill be cut at least one
third short ou my place—100 lbs. per acre, and on
the Litter, the iucreasc of yie>d wilt be about 2 to 1.
I am satisfied, that if the season had been more
favorable, the result would have been more manifest.
There can be no question but that your " Manipula
ted Guano” is an admirable manure—its cheapness
over the Peruvian Guano, together with its adapted
ness to the production of cotton, will certainly re-
commond it to the cotton planters I expect to use
it mnch more liberally on my next year's crop.
II. A. JONES.
I am truly yours,
Charleston, Oct. 27th, 1859
John Kettlewell, Esq.;
Dear Sir:—Iu reply to .your letter of 14th inst., in
which you make the request that I should give you
“ the results of my experience with your Manipula
ted Guano, especially in
comparison with the
vian, both as U regards quality and quantity."
For the last two years, I have used your No. 1
Manipulated Guano largely for my fanning purpo
ses, and in various experiments to test it with the
best Peruvian in quantity and quality. They have
been conducted with great minuteness, and in every
instance the Manipulated Guano has proved superi
or to tho Peruvian alone—the growth of the plant
being more vigorous, and the product hoavier.—
This resnlt was more particularly applicable to corn;
yet, as to other crops, say barley, oats, fto., the su
periority oftbe Manipulated was apparent. I think
it a stronger and a cheaper manure—cheaper, be
cause it requires less to the aero, and also on account
of difference in price. I therefore use it in prefer
ence to Peruvian, on all my crops. Not planting
cotton, I have no personal experience of its effects
on that plant. Yours, very nspectfullv,
BENJ. S. RllETT.

Messrs. John Rowlett 4 Co—Gents:
In reply to your inquiry I with p.eaaure state, that
sometime in the early part of this year, the Inspec
tors at this Warehouse sold for Mr. F. It. Wills, a
successful fanner of Prince George's, and a gentle
men of high character aud undoubted integrity,
two lots of loose tohacco, one of which as stated by
him was made on land where Manipulated Guano
had been used and the other where Peruvian Gnano
had been Used; the former bringing $9j per cwt.,
the latteronly 67. As indicated by the prices there
was a vory marked difference in the two lots so far
as to the quality and character oftbe tobacco ; that
of the former being heavier and rich; ot the latter,
then, bony, course and poor.
In addition, I wifi state, that go far as I am inform
ed, the tobacco grown on land where Kettlewell’s
Manipulated Guano has been used, is generally of a
superior quality, and conseqnent'y several of our
targe tobacoo growers are now nsing this guano on
their tobaoco crop in preference to other manures.
Very respectfully yonrs,

aud nt the present prices we se s no reason why they

qual, if not superior to the best Peruvian Gnano
the first crop. I have tried on all crops in ail ways,
and do not hesitate to say that 1 esteem it superior
to Peruvian Guano—because it produce* an equal
crop, when first applied, if not better—far bstter in
second crop, and admits of no comparison for grass.
I use no other than the ‘-Manipulated,” and rest as
sured as long as yon keep the article to the present
standard, it must supercede the Peruvian with us.

adapted to various purposes. So far as pnblio opin
ion has been formed and uttered, the preference is
emphatically accorded to ihe Wheeler and Wilson
machine for family use, and for manufactures in the
same range of purpose and m iterial. During the
present autumn the trials have been numerous, and
all the patients of anypretensienhavebeen brought
fairly iuto competition. In every case, the Wheel
er ft Wilson machine has won the highestpreminm.

posed of twenty-five Ladies of the highest social
standing, who, without a disser ting voice, awarded
for the Wheeler ft Wilson Machine, tbe highest
